This was posted last week on Bookcrossing.com:

Get Creative for BookCrossing’s Silver Jubilee!

The 2026 International BookCrossing Day BookPlate Design Contest is now open!

To enter, create a design (illustration, drawing, photograph, knitting, sculpture, or any other creative medium) and submit it by January 20, 2026. The winner will be chosen by the BookCrossing community and will have their BookPlate design featured in the Supply Store, receive a free pack of BookPlates, a full year of Wings!

Runners up (2nd & 3rd place) will also receive prizes.

Get creative and celebrate BookCrossing’s 25th anniversary!

And here's the official thread in the discussion forum: https://www.bookcrossing.com/forum/9/602672

Some more info from that thread:

We need your design to be in our mailbox before January 20, and after that we'll put it online so people can vote for their favourite. It needs to be square, and the size needs to be 800 x 800 pixels or larger for good printing results.

Please make sure that any image you submit is something you have created yourself. Stock images and AI generated images cannot be entered into the contest. And please don't refer to a specific year, because if you win, your labels will be in the Store every year, for several years.
